My experience is don't buy direct from Canon. Everybody knows it. They sell at recommended retail price and it is usually way off the chart. Try scouting on the local stores. You will likely get a good price. Just make sure that you only buy Canon products with the sticker 'Imported by Canon Marketing Malaysia' and insist upon the green label warranty slip. Don't get the international warranty one...it is considered gray imports by CMM.

Personally speaking, I don't know why they don't honor such a warranty. It the same thing. Probably sales restriction to protect local sales. Maybe CMM's policy.

Remarkably though, I got very good price for my lens at CANON KLCC. The Malay women who works there was the best when it came to bargaining prices. The other 2 guy employees though, kept to the higher prices...

still waiting...

any new news? a date or something?
really want to buy a camera... tangan kaki hidung mata very gatal want to take picture already.. day night afternoon read about camera..
when la, when la can buy..

Any chance they will debut this new model at Midvalley's Gadget Fair this weekend? I read from newspaper they will be spread throughout the whole mall. Canon has a large booth too. Try checking it out. Maybe you can land yourself on a pre-order or something. I know Nikon is showing its D60 liao.
